Chapter 242 Transition Time
The castle of Einzbern.
"Master, I"
Watching everyone leave, Artoria stood there and thought for a long time, then turned to look at Irisviel who had been standing beside her and accompanied her with a worried look, with a bitter smile on her face.
The lady smiled gently and encouraged: "It's okay, [Saber], although I don't quite understand, but I believe in your belief and your kingly way. Next time, you will definitely be able to defeat them!"
After receiving the gentle encouragement from the lady, Artoria forced a smile and changed the subject: "Master, you go to rest first, I will think about it again"
Finally, the two walked into the castle and took a rest in the bedroom that was still intact.
Of course, only Irisviel was resting. Artoria was too stimulated that night, and the castle's defensive barrier was forcibly dismantled by the King of Conquerors.
So she chose to keep watch to prevent anyone else from attacking.
This was just an excuse. Altria just wanted to be alone and think about what she heard, saw, and thought tonight.
Time passed quickly, and Irisviel fell into a deep sleep in the bedroom.
In her dream, a girl wearing silver armor and holding a shining long sword fought on various battlefields. Beside her stood a group of knights who were also wearing thick armor.
With the support of so many knights, the girl continued to win the war and finally won a peaceful life for her people.
When they rode back to their kingdom, the people cheered, celebrated, and prayed for the kings and knights who guarded them.
But their king bowed his head on the horse, and the hair on his forehead hid the king's expression and her eyes, so that no one could see what she was thinking.
This is the dream caused by the connection between the heroic spirit and the master. In the dream, the master can glimpse the past of the heroic spirit, and the heroic spirit can also understand the past of the master.
But the point is not here. When Irisviel was in a dream state, the talisman that Zhao Chen had given her before, which Madam had not paid attention to because it had no magic power, quietly floated up.
Without any fluctuations or breath, the talisman floated in front of Irisviel's forehead, slowly emitting a soft white light.
The white light gradually flowed from Madam's forehead into her whole body, as if it was removing some harmful substances for her.
This process lasted for quite a long time. Just as the remaining white light on the talisman gradually dimmed, wisps of black air overflowed from Madam's whole body and were quickly absorbed by the talisman.
The next moment, as if it felt that this absorption was too slow, the talisman floated up and down in the air several times, and then slammed into Irisviel's chest.
The soft white light dissipated, and both the talisman and the black air disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
However, if you look closely at Irisviel who is in a dream, you will find that her complexion is many times better than before, and it is gradually getting better.
One night passed, when the sun was shining,
With a little blood on his body and a clear smell of blood and rust, Emiya Kiritsugu walked in from the main gate. It is called the main gate, but in fact it is more than half broken, and even the most basic shielding function no longer exists.
Emiya Kiritsugu had just finished chasing Director Ken. Because of the existence of [Lancer], he was not able to spare Kenneth's life, but he still shot Director Ken a few more times.
Well, it was still the origin bullet.
So, Director Ken's magic circuit completely collapsed, and his mentality also collapsed.
You have to know that Kenneth came to participate in the Holy Grail War not because of any necessary or urgent reason, but just wanted to add anecdotes that were evaluated as "martial arts" to his experience, and that was the reason of this degree.
God knows how it turned out like this
On the other hand, Emiya Kiritsugu happened to meet Kotomine Kirei on his way back from victory.
Originally, he thought that this priest came with a mission from the Holy Church, but he didn't even say hello after meeting him. He just punched him, almost making the air wrinkle.
If Emiya Kiritsugu hadn't been through hundreds of battles, he would not have walked back today, but crawled back!
Of course, this time Kotomine Kirei only had a brief confrontation with Emiya Kiritsugu, and left decisively after a few rounds.
Emiya Kiritsugu didn't understand Kotomine Kirei's thoughts along the way, and just hurried back to his base camp.
"Last night" (omitted tens of thousands of words of the previous story)
Seeing Emiya Kiritsugu and Yili, Irisviel immediately told them what happened before, and from time to time cast worried eyes on Altria and Emiya Kiritsugu.
While listening to his wife's story, Kiritsugu Emiya calmed down and pondered the key information, which could help him win the Holy Grail War.
As for Altria, she has now gotten over the influence of last night and returned to her previous self as a [Servant].
She still cannot agree with the words of the King of Conquerors, Gilgamesh and others. She must get the Holy Grail to change her own history!
On the other hand, Gilgamesh, who returned to the Tōsaka residence, did not meet Tokiomi, or she was no longer willing to meet him.
What happened before really annoyed him, and he even had some murderous intentions towards his master. At this time, Kotomine Kirei, who had fought with Emiya Kiritsugu, came.
Gilgamesh looked at Kotomine Kirei with an expressionless face, and suddenly an interesting idea came to his mind, so he smiled and said to him: "Kirei, I have something to discuss with you."
No matter what Gilgamesh was going to do, it was not a good thing anyway, so there was no need to explain it in detail.
On the side of Zhao Chen, the store manager whose presence had always been a little weak, Mordred was very excited after issuing a declaration of war with Altria, and wished that he could gather all the Heroic Spirits together now and beat them back to the Hall of Heroes one by one!
In this way, it would definitely prove that her strength was stronger than her father's!
"Master, when can we go fight with others? Although there are always delicious foods, you have to exercise after eating, otherwise your body will rust!"
Holding a small dried fish, Mordred, who was constantly eating, waved his oily paws at his master, feeling like a cat wanting the owner to let him go for a walk.
Zhao Chen handed her another plate of dried fish and said with a smile: "It should be soon. Without [Caster] and Lancelot's interference, this war will probably end in less than seven days, and now the third day is over"
Please don't let me down, Holy Grail!
And Valhalla, if it weren't for this sudden premonition, I wouldn't choose to abide by the rules and participate in the Holy Grail War, so I really look forward to the moment when it ends!
With a certain premonition and subsequent speculation in his heart, the arc of Zhao Chen's mouth gradually increased, revealing a mysterious temperament.
